 Redeveloping a Playground
01.
The playground will consist of an apparatus full of sliding boards, durable, rubber swings,

Project
including swings that are accessible to children in wheelchairs, sand hole, outdoor games for
children to explore areas to climb. The main playground will have another path for safe bike
rides, a well detailed garden that wraps around the playground, and safe rubber material that

Description protects the children from harming themselves from rough surfaces. We intend to do this by
hiring skilled professionals to handle every aspect of each individual project including a
landscaper designer to lay out the dynamics of the surrounding areas. Our goal is to provide the
community with a safe and fun playground where children can enjoy a good playtime.

Project
Project team deliverables include all necessary project documentation including project scope,
work breakdown, associated diagrams, risk management plan, resource plan, and communication
plan. There is also community survey report, contractor recommendations, park manufacturer

Deliverables recommendations, product related deliverables, new fully functional park structure, new park
surfacing, new park perimeter fence, new park landscaping and mew park water conservative
irrigation system.

Project Our deliverables for this project is to create the playground in the same sizes the old
one. We only have a certain amount of space and resources to achieve this. With our

Objectives
budget of $350,000 dollars, we want to start a common theme of healthy, safe and
creative parks. Some goals for this project include the balance of safety and adventure
along with promoting and supporting public understanding of outdoor play.
 Project Assumptions
01.
Some of the assumptions of the project are :
1. Our first assumption is that the project plan will be executed in the amount of time allotted and that all fundraising and grant acquisition will occur and be completed prior to the
completion of the project.
2. Our second assumption is that our budget. As the majority of our project will be funded through fundraising by the PAC and the school, a major assumption is that the PAC and the
school are able to fundraise enough funds to support the construction.
3. Our next assumption is that the PAC members are knowledgeable and have the resources, alongside this project plan, to execute and complete this project.
4. We are also assuming that the vendor that the school board is selecting for the project will have the necessary skills and expertise to execute and complete the project within the set
budget and time frame.
5. This project plan also assumes that there are no legal complications throughout the project and that there will be no lawsuits or legal fines placed in the process of construction.
6. To ensure that stakeholder views are considered in playground construction.
7. To ensure that project output meets end-users needs.
8. To increase project buy in stakeholder group.
9. Besides all the ways that project management team could communicate with stakeholders, they have to be careful to not to over-communicate with them. Also, the management
team should not report a problem to them without suggesting a solution.
10. Improve the co-ordination of school’s actual budget and schedule and bring them to clear to the fix budget and schedule.
11. Provide information on the actual building, safety standards, suppliers information, reports and conferences.
12.The first benefit is that the assumption of receiving the cement no later than due date allows you to plan for activities that rely on the cement arriving.
13.The second benefit is that it provides the person in charge of materials with a deadline to deliver the cement, which he can then relay to his supplier. It has inadvertently set up a
key deadline for the project to move forward.
14. The city’s planning department will take the lead role in coordinating all tasks contained under this project.
15. The city will either borrow money or obtain grant dollars in order to fund the project through completion.
16. The city will obtain permits from necessary federal and state agencies.
17.Making assumptions sets benchmarks that are often revisited during the project to aid the project team in staying within scope, on time and within budget. This is where risk comes
into play.
